    These just arrived: 3 CGC 9.8s signed by Transformers voice actors. Both Peter Cullen signatures also have a quote: 1) More than meets the eye, 2) Autobots, Roll Out!. Thanks to @Celestial Comics for helping with the sigs and quotes.

    Yeah, I don't support Dreamwave books. Gen 2 Marvel is ok but replaced by Regen one. And now the Transformers 84 #0 changes a lot of narrative for the old Marvel Series. 

     

    Glad to see the thread still kicking.

    It's a rare book because basically up until last year nobody knew this book even existed - I'm a fairly hardcore Sandman collector and even I thought it was a myth (or misprint in the OSPG).

    The fact that there's now 12 copies in the census and multiple raw copies are popping up on eBay fairly regularly shows that, as people are becoming aware of the existence of this book, they're managing to find it in the wild. Heck, I snagged my own raw copy out of a $5 box earlier this year - simply because I'm now actively looking for this book.

    Right now this book is the rarest Sandman variant out there (based on census numbers), but it would be foolish to think that's going to be the case in the future. That honor will always end up going to the #8 Berger editorial variant simply because it has a far smaller print run than this book.

    Good luck with the sale of your copy  (thumbsu

    Where did you get the print run data? Because 75 2nd was not even in the top 300 the ordering was so low. #8 Berger had 600 copies confirmed, and 75 2nd is rumored to be much less. So just wondering where you get the info that 75 2nd is less rare than #8 editorial?

    A 9.4 sold for $217 a few months ago and there are only 5 of those out there. Is it common for the difference in a 9.4 to a 9.6 to be approx 10x? 

    I don't have a dog in the fight, I've just always heard it was a nearly impossible book to 

    Print run was estimated at 106k (according tp comichron) for 1st print, 2nd print never made the top 300 list and was released in April 1996.

    I'm sure the sale was legit :wink:. Another book being pushed as rare simply because of low census numbers. 

    No the book is actually quite rare, considering there are threads on this site even where people were telling others "It doesn't exist".

    Stop trying to act like you know all about every rare comic, it's obvious you are clueless.

    Anson Mount, star of AMC's Hell on Wheels, as Black Bolt, king of the Inhumans.

     

    So where's my piece of frickin candy?

    And now Marvel's Inhumans casts Serinda Swan as Medusa

    Man if I only had a $1 for everything that I have disproven or proven and been right, I'd be a millionaire or close too it.

    Ultramaximus I have been here on these boards a lot longer than you have. My account got merged and this is the result. Relax or you can just block me if don't like what I have to say like I did for you on the old boards.

    I don't care how long you have been someplace but your account and posting style made you look like a complete noob. Everyone who is posting in here are the HYPE TRAIN. If you claim things, but post no links to confirm you sources, you are likely to be fake news and or attempting ye'ole pump & dump. 

    I also figured something was up because a screen name that good should be snatched up asap.

    Lemmings read this and if you say something is hot, chances are you have it for sale and are looking to make a $ and a lemming just might buy it. Not my job to prvent the lemmings from doing what they want but I'll sure contest anything any of you post without proof. \

    Go to Tom Taylor's Twitter. It's confirmed Daken is returning. lol solicits, I'll take the writer of All-New Wolverines word for it that he will be returning...maybe not in next 2 to 3 months, but at some point in the series. Anayways  I was just pointing out that the book was hitting some ridiculous prices....for a character who is mostly disliked.   I can't see that solely Tom Taylor confirming he is coming back as the reason for the heat (this just happened within last 2 days), and other than the rampant spec that "x-24" is Daken, I have yet to see anyone of importance confirm X-24 is Daken in Logan. Now there are some possible specs in the mutant kids in Logan but until we actually see it and can confirm on wide scale other than screening leak speculation I wouldn't hold my breath. It is interesting that one of them can make the Earth move ala Quake tho. 

    As for the other dude that dropped all the X-Titles being confirmed, some are speculated as def happening but not straight up confirmed, Yes.  We can't take Blink being cast as a def for Exiles-she was also Generation X first and foremost....Now this is my speculation but that X-Men TV show description sounds like a twist and play of Gen X.. Mr Sinister has been confirmed for a future X-Men related movie though by Kinberg. Who needs links when you can Google? Laziness lol sheesh. What Culture, Movie Pilot, and Comicbookmovie.com are the 1st 3 to pop up all confirming Sinister will be in a future X-Men movie from Simon Kinberg. All this stuff can be fact checked doing simple searches...

    Sorry, I don't follow the drek on Twitter, and If Dakken returns in All-New Wolverine, then that book will surely fall in sales totals and the writer should be fired so don't count on Marvel approving the "return" button on "worse Wolverine".  Marvel knows he sucks, and why after Secret Wars and the meh Wolverines they shelved him like DC did Emo Lobo who strikes an odd resemblance to Dakken as far as being a pu you know what.

    We knew Sinister was a thing with the end credits of Apocalypse.  

    And if you have 4 posts, claiming appearances and things with no credibility, it might be someone trolling on a 2nd account.

    Daken is returning to comics. Look it up.

    With all the recent confirmation of X-Men properties and characters a good speculator would picking up everything X-Men related right now.  Just in the last week Mr. Sinister confirmed, Alpha Flight confirmed, Exiles confirmed, Blink confirmed & Dark Phoenix confirmed.  That's not even from what we already know like New Mutants, Gambit, Deadpool 2 (Cable & Domino), X-Men and X-Force. With Legion and the X-Men tv show confirming more X-Men characters to be added.  Hell, I just waiting for Fox now to announce X-Factor and Excalibur soon. lol

    Wow, that isn't anywhere near confirmed, but you may be a Fox employee or someone looking to make a few bucks on the speculation side. Dark Phoenix isn't confirmed, like at all. Speculated on being the next X-Men movie, yes but nowhere near confirmed.  No solicits are showing anything Dakken related on anything Marvel. 

    Links please if you are going to cite things as being confirmed.

    Wolverine Origins # 10 3rd claw variant is hitting some outrageous asking prices. Rivaling NYX # 3 in high grade slabbed. Actually the reg cover and 2 claw variant are heating up as well....

    For no reason. Confirmed to not be in Logan, and the character is not being used by Marvel currently. Tread lightly, yeah it's rare but it's a character that sucks. Nobody likes Emo Wolverine.
